The Russian Gas Gets A Shoutout From The Minnesota Wild After An OT Win

As mentioned before here and on Spittin' Chiclets, Minnesota's Kirill Kaprizov is an incredible talent and makes the Wild a team you make sure to catch. 

I was watching that OT game vs. the Kings live and saw him on fire from the jump then slickly win the game. But I had no idea that one of the podcast's longtime and beloved topics was getting its flowers in the joyous celebration after an OTGWG. I'm pretty sure Zach Parise mentions it and I think Matt Dumba is the other guy saying it. Just absolutely hilarious that our show meme is being used to congratulate/chirp at that moment. 

Minnesota is on the Chiclets Short List for an upcoming roadie. We were all set to make our initial trek for the Winter Classic earlier this month. But some bat-eating weirdo torpedoed that shit. We will get there soon enough though and I can't wait. 

[If you're not a Chiclets listener, 'Russian Gas' refers to a mystery substance said to be issued in some KHL locker rooms as a form of energy boost (the KHL is the Russian league regarded as the 2nd best in world). It has been known to be issued both via syringe and the eponymous form. Whit said that after he got a blast, he felt like he could play in the NHL again. Until the effects wore off a period or so later.]

By the way, we have a pretty sweet hockey shirt in honor of what the WWF used to call a 'foreign object'.
